Because of Rhode Island’s proximity to the ocean, the weather is mildly humid. The winters are long but moderate, unlike most of New England, averaging approximately 30 degrees. Due to cold conditions, Rhode Island sees slightly more than 35 inches of snow every winter. During the short summer however, the weather is pleasant and mild, about 75 degrees. Nearly 45 inches of rain fall year round, mainly during spring and summer, creating an abundance of water. Heavy thunderstorms come often during rainy season, but pass quickly. Infrequently, Rhode Island experiences blizzards and hurricanes, neither of which are very violent.
